Colossians

Good Morning, Dear Friends and Prayer Partners! This is the day that the Lord has made and we will rejoice and be glad in it! More sun and heat and still August creeps on toward Sept. But I think the butterflies like the heat, because they seem to really be flitting by toward the back yard in the mornings, where the butterfly beauty bush is growing.  There are so many pretty ones!

I had a hard time getting to sleep last night. I tossed and turned and finally got up about 1:30 and took a Tylenol and read for about thirty minutes, then crawled back in bed and finally got a few hours sleep. I will probably be ready for a nap this afternoon, but my cleaning ladies will be coming then...

I did get over to the park yesterday and saw three ibis in the canal, which is overgrown with weeds and very little water. I also saw a great blue heron. They are so majestic in their stance, and when they stretch their necks! God is good!

From the Promise Bible NLT:

Colossians 3:23-27

Work hard and cheerfully as whatever you do,
as though you were working for the Lord rather
than for people. Remember that the Lord will give
you an inheritance as your reward and the Master
you are serving is Christ.


I always give thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers with thanksgiving, joy and love!

Love and hugs,
 Amaryllis
